Called Dumbbell2, the product is advertised as the ‘next generation dumbbell’ and features an innovative design that provides the user with a more effective and versatile workout. Natural movement is the idea behind the two-handed model, which is lighter than the traditional dumbbell and offers a quick, ‘full body strength and aerobic training session’ in a mere 15 to 20 minutes. The product may be combined with ‘functional’ exercises that utilize rapid movements while forcing the body to work muscles on both sides equally. Also Read - 5 exercises to build fantastic forearms

‘The traditional dumbbell has been around for many years and definitely works. But just because it works, that doesn’t mean it’s the most effective design,’ said Dr. Diva Nagula, a physician and Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Dumbbell2.com. ‘For example, think of a roller skate versus an inline skate. Although the roller skate worked, the inline skate came along with a streamlined design of four wheels in the center, which allowed it to work better. That’s what we’ve done with the DB2 — reinvented the design of the traditional dumbbell to make it work better for the human body.’ Read to find out if dumbbells are better than machines.
